One of my customers would like users to be able to download a pdf. This can be done using the 'Download Button' module, that fetches a file from the media library.

What they can't do is make a hyperlink in the rich text module to do the same.

All it does in the rich text is put a link to the file as it is on the editor server not on the hosting server. Also if the file isn't a traditional media file it doesn't get transferred to the hosting server as it would if it was a 'Download Button' module.

Could you make it so a user can make a link in text to a file that can be downloaded?
